Questions to SSH/SFTP/SCP

$

Hey,

I'm reading a bit about SSH, SFTP and SCP. I use all of them everyday and I know that they are encrypted. But what does that exactly mean and how safe am I? How does the encryption works? I read that SSH, SFTP and SCP all use the same encryption. They encrypt my files/passwords with my private and public key pair. Is that right? And does this mean that when I have a public key with 1024 bit my connection is 1024 bit encrypted?

Just a few noobiequestions about that.

regards and thanks :)
